An extensive data search among various types of developmental and evolutionary sequences yielded a `four quadrant' model of consciousness and its development (the four quadrants being intentional, behavioural, cultural, and social). Each of these dimensions was found to unfold in a sequence of at least a dozen major stages or levels. Combining the four quadrants with the dozen or so major levels in each quadrant yields an integral theory of consciousness that is quite comprehensive in its nature and scope. This model is used to indicate how a general synthesis and integration of twelve of the most influential schools of consciousness studies can be effected, and to highlight some of the most significant areas of future research. The conclusion is that an `all-quadrant, all-level' approach is the minimum degree of sophistication that we need into order to secure anything resembling a genuinely integral theory of consciousness. , 9 -30 sort to upper right quadrant http://www.evogeneao.com/images... , 10 -2 The Central Enigma of Consciousness Chris King http://www.dhushara.com/enigma... , 10 -6 quadrandt corelation with ? > http://friendfeed.com/citizen... , also intentional meaning vs volitional meaning ? http://friendfeed.com/citizen... , - Thomas Page

9 -13 Exterior Collective http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... By way of example, one can crudely categorize the perspectives taken on people and their behavior in different schools of thought: Interior individual accounts (upper-left quadrant) include Freudian psychoanalysis, which interprets people's interior experiences and focuses on "I" Interior plural accounts (lower-left) include Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics which seeks to interpret the collective consciousness of a society, or plurality of people and focuses on "We" Exterior individual accounts (upper-right) include B. F. Skinner's behaviorism, which limits itself to the observation of the behavior of organisms and treats the internal experience, decision making or volition of the subject as a black box, and which with the fourth perspective emphasizes the subject as a specimen to examine, or "It". Exterior plural accounts (lower-right) include Marxist economic theory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... which focuses upon the behavior of a society (ie a plurality of people) as functional entities seen from outside. - Thomas Page
